This page will have names and pics of the folks I have managed to influence into Ham Radio.
I think this is a very important part of ham radio and consider these six folks to be my BEST accomplishments
in ham radio. I usually keep a couple of " Now You're Talking" books around to pass out as needed.
My advice to anyone who has been on the air long enough to be comfortable....Try to get someone interested in ham radio and be an Elmer to them.

This is My wonderful wife. Susan, KG4NRI, was licensed at Dayton in 2002.
She really enjoys the public service part of Ham Radio...go figure...she's a teacher!
This is Ron Baker, W8OJI. I allowed him to use my portable station in his sons back yard to work PSK31. Before I left that evening I handed him a " Now You're Talking" and he was licensed 3 months later.
He is now a General class op and enjoys 20m.
This is Mary,KB3IPH, Ron's wife. She was in 2003. After Ron finished with the book, she picked it up , looked at it and said "I can do this." And she did....go figure...she's also a teacher.
This is Krystal,KI4AMM. She is Ron and Mary's daughter-in-law. She was licensed at Dayton in 2003.And, she's another teacher.
This is Lee, N3JJJ. Lee has actually been licensed longer than I, but was inactive. After I discovered he was a ham, and talking a bit, I discovered his only radio was inoperative.
So, I handed him my vhf jump kit one day and said," use this".
Lee is Ron and Mary's son.
